Myrtle Hill Cemetery

Rome, GA

This terraced cemetery climbs a steep hill above the rivers and contains ornate monuments, veterans' graves and the burial of Ellen Axson Wilson, the first wife of President Woodrow Wilson. The unusual topography turns the cemetery into a winding hillside landscape rather than a flat burial ground.
